mainlining shenanigans
68134668c1
Restrict bpf timers to array, hash (both preallocated and kmalloced), and lru map types. The per-cpu maps with timers don't make sense, since 'struct bpf_timer' is a part of map value. bpf timers in per-cpu maps would mean that the number of timers depends on number of possible cpus and timers would not be accessible from all cpus. lpm map support can be added in the future. The timers in inner maps are supported. The bpf_map_update/delete_elem() helpers and sys_bpf commands cancel and free bpf_timer in a given map element. Similar to 'struct bpf_spin_lock' BTF is required and it is used to validate that map element indeed contains 'struct bpf_timer'. Make check_and_init_map_value() init both bpf_spin_lock and bpf_timer when map element data is reused in preallocated htab and lru maps. Teach copy_map_value() to support both bpf_spin_lock and bpf_timer in a single map element. There could be one of each, but not more than one. Due to 'one bpf_timer in one element' restriction do not support timers in global data, since global data is a map of single element, but from bpf program side it's seen as many global variables and restriction of single global timer would be odd. The sys_bpf map_freeze and sys_mmap syscalls are not allowed on maps with timers, since user space could have corrupted mmap element and crashed the kernel. The maps with timers cannot be readonly. Due to these restrictions search for bpf_timer in datasec BTF in case it was placed in the global data to report clear error. The previous patch allowed 'struct bpf_timer' as a first field in a map element only. Relax this restriction. Refactor lru map to s/bpf_lru_push_free/htab_lru_push_free/ to cancel and free the timer when lru map deletes an element as a part of it eviction algorithm. Make sure that bpf program cannot access 'struct bpf_timer' via direct load/store. The timer operation are done through helpers only. This is similar to 'struct bpf_spin_lock'.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
